About this listen

 This is the story of a boy named Kester. He has rescued the last wild animals in the world, and
saved his capital city from destruction. But now he must face his greatest challenge yet,
because:


1. The only blue whale on the planet has brought news from across the ocean
2. A mysterious steel dome has risen from the Four Towers
3. Out there, somewhere, a brave mouse holds the key to the future...

Critic reviews

An excellent, punchy adventure tale with vivid characters and an impassioned eco message.
Written in vivid and urgent style ... As thrilling as James and the Giant Peach ... The Last Wild may be as critical to the new generation as Tarka the Otter.
Full of suspense without ever sacrificing warmth. (Katherine Rundell)
A darkly comic and hugely inventive adventure ... it could be the next big thing. (Eoin Colfer)
Gripping, original and memorable. (Francesca Simon)
A magnetic adventure ... find yourself glued like tar to this satisfying, spine-tingling book. (Samuel H. (aged 10))
Wildly inventive, moving and gripping. (Frank Cottrell Boyce)
A must-read: brings to mind the smarts and silliness of Roald Dahl.
Inventive, with laughs, tears and cliffhangers.
I haven't read a book this good and interesting since The Hunger Games ... an edge-of-your-seat fast-paced read.
Splendid stuff (Eva Ibbotson)
An amazing story
The sequel had better come soon.
All stars

This audio book has been an enjoyable listening experience and the story an interesting concept. It is a shame that the word 'horns' is used rather than 'antlers' in reference to the deer as these are not one and the same, misleading for the younger listeners.

I have now read the entire trilogy, and I believe that it should be a required trilogy in all schools. An excellent final book.
